CVE-2008-5814
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in PHP, possibly 5.2.7 and earlier, when display_errors is enabled, allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.86%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
